New ORLEANS, July 27.-A fatal duel
was fought on the banks OF the Yazoo
river opposite Greenwood, Miss, be-
tween George Evans and Bud Harris,
both well known colored men. The men
were terribly in earnest and selected
double barreled ~shotguns which were
loaded with buckshot. Only two PAGES
apart they stood, the muzzle Of the. guns
almost touching when the word was
given to fire. Both responded almost at
the same moment Evans fell dead, his
breast torn to pieces with the murderous
buckshot. Harris is dangerously, per-

Now many farmers have found their
notes given Flowers In the hands OF mer-
chants or the National Bank. These
notes We're given with Ihe promise that
they were to be paid if certain results en-
sued. Flowers gave them a supply Of
his nostrums after getting their notes
and then fed. Before going Flowers

was easily done, because they were
signed by good, substantial farmers.
Over $5,0 00 worth OF these notes are held

MAY BE A CARPENTERS STRIKE.
Latest Phase of the Troubles in the City
of Chicago.

latest Phase OF the Troubles in the CITY
of Chicago.
CHICAGO, July Git is possible that a
general strike may be declared. j. B,
Parks, n of the Carpenters Council
thus states the position: "a strike
against those bosses who refuse to grant
our terms can accomplish nothing. We
have no means of telling who is working
eight and who is working nine hours. If
q general strike was ordered we could
stop every job in Chicago inside of
t~wenty-four hours and have the trouble
settled for alltipe. The Carpenters and
Builders association refuses to recognize
our union and has temporarily disbanded
rather than arbitrate with us. They are
anxious to finish the work on hand. req
son1ng that when work becomes scarce IT
will be an easy matter to force us to ac-
accept work upon any terms. We want
an agreement between the two o~rgani5a-
tions and will have peace if we have to
go to war for it.n
1t was reported at the Builders Ex-
change that the bricklayers employed
upon the Haymarket theatre had struck
work on account of non. union carpenters
being employed upon the job. An inyes.
tigation proved that the bricklayers had
been laid off on ccount of the breaking
of & twisting machine. Both union and
no1l-union carpenters are working upon
this Job. Anumber of bricklayers struck
at the corner of Milwaukee avenue and
Division street on account of non.upion
carpenters and ~hodcarriers. A strike oc.
Cured at No. LOG Washington avenue
from the same cause. There were doubt
less a num'oero OF similar cases. The Am.
algamated Building Trades Council has
published a card for several days request
ing union workmen to demand an ex-
change OF working cards upon all build
lngs. While the men were not ordered
to strike, that was the meaning implied.
